Thinking without deciding

I've been thinking lately of taking in a lodger or two ...
not too sure though If I'd be too good at giving up my own space & ways to allow sharing with another.

I'm pretty certain all would go well to begin with very happy
but given I'm the type who insist the toilet roll goes down and under, I reckon after a very short while, I could very easily become the land lady from hell devil

So as much as I'd like to venture down road, one must stay on the path of reality....
or perhaps I should challenge myself and my ways confused dunno

would you, could you or have you shared your home with a stranger?

If yes, would you advice it conversing

I spelled the name wrong but he was a bad one in a drama series I watched yonks ago....
Richman poor man, looking at him again, perhaps not so much but at first glance he did remind me of him.

The comments stay.... dear bouquet
My neighbor has rented her extra badroom out 4 times now. 2 men & 2 women, both the women gave her problems and the two different men have been gentlemen. This last man is really nice but they are all in their 70's. Good luck to you.
I read wrong, I guessed as much Red wink

Have a lovely evening there hug wave
As a woman myself, I hate to admit it but sometimes we're easier to take in small doses giggle
besides, men are more respectful to women's privacy than women ourselves jmo.

Nice seeing you Fay wave
Aah, ok....gotcha thumbs up ....yea, no resemblance lol but I can understand at first glance. This isn't the greatest picture because we were just lounging laugh .....but I will say, he's much better looking than this Freddy character smitten ...especially without all the whiskers that hide the dimples wink
Lounging or not, I wouldn't put him out on a cold night ...
that would be heartless laugh

But if he's ever looking for lodgings in Ireland roll eyes

wave
He's a bit of a keeper, don't think I'll be sharing any time soon rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing .....I'm sure his brother would love Ireland handshake angel roll eyes wave

Won't hesitate to say I like you.
Why thank you iotaoo wave

I like you too hug

Why?
You are authentic, your viewpoint be wrong or right.
I hope you don't take me otherwise.handshake
As Confucius would say "it's confusing". conversing
Had a few lodgers in my time. Had to get the priest in to exorcise the house after the last one left. Here is my take on it:

Good guys:
Czechs
Chinese

Middling:
Indians

Dodgy:
Lithuanians
Pakistanis

Really Dodgy:
Japanese

Good luck if you go down that road!
Stichy witch, I'll pay you €200 a month and not a cent moreprofessor
And did it work, the exorcism that is conversing

Ever had any Irish lodgers to be dealing with, interested in your take on us hmmm

Thanks I'll take what you've said on board, but I'll be knocking it on the head for a while ...
apricate the input though wine
I'll pay you 300 not to address me again roll eyes
Because people living outside die of cold in the winter.

I imagine some cities in Canada have instituted that law to keep the death rate down from landlords turfing tenants out with a complete disregard for their welfare, or where they might go next.

As a landlord you have ethical and legal responsibilities. Tenants are not disposable commodities, nor are they lodgers for your lifestyle convenience.
You are not allowed in some places to throw someone out in the winter............wave
Two lodgers before, both friends of mine or the family and now not friends. Not so bothered about the toilet paper, but an incredibly wasteful and long-winded way of making a bacon sandwich? I can't live with that, especially when they never go out for fun seemingly content to spend the rest of their life indoors making a bacon sandwich.
I was using a little bit of light hearted humour when I replied to jenny ....
we do/did have an eviction ban here, so I'm aware of the reasons why, but I do appreciate the info just the same handshake

Both tenant and landlords, needs to respect each other....
it's not a one way street.

If tenants are not for one's lifestyle convenience, then why have them confused
Understandable handshake
even if I don't agree with it.

Howdy do little lady wave
As in couch potatoes?
no I couldn't be doing with them either, even if I do fancy me a bacon sandwich giggle

I reckon I'd be sued by many for discrimination, so for financial reasons, I think I've made the right decision.

No lodgers welcome at my cave very happy
Deal, does that still include rumpy pumpy twice a week?
Never had that option!

Knowing myself, I hate sharing..

I am someone worth knowing but I'll leave you to be the judge of that... lol
It's hard to describe myself as in personality wise, where I may not be the best, I most certainly am not the worst, but I do tend to be more on the quiet side, more so the [read more]
